HC Deb 28 January 1985 vol 72 cc21-2W
Mr. Wheeler

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he proposes to issue to the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis guidance under section 106 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 on arrangements for obtaining the views of local people on police matters.

Mr. Brittan

Copies of the guidance that I have issued to the Commissioner have been placed in the Library of the House and sent to every right hon. and hon. Member for a constituency in the Metropolitan police district. I have also issued a circular giving non-statutory guidance to police authorities outside London about their duties under section 106 of the Act. Copies of this document have also been placed in the Library of the House.
